The Sleeplesss Lifestyle...

Yes thats right people! I have decided to adopt a new lifestyle!

Rather than complain about my lack of sleep, and pine for sweet slumber...I have decided to embrace my lifestyle almost as if its my choice NOT to sleep. Yes, I will embrace it and enjoy all of its benefits and laugh at those of you who get your full nights sleep. HAHA! You dont know what your missing...

You see, those of us who enjoy the "sleepless lifestyle" enjoy these (among many) benefits:

1) Since you are up so many more hours you have so much more time to ponder:
a) life and whats wrong with you and how your parents screwed you up
b) stupid things your husband does and how his parents screwed him up
c) So much more time to stress out about work and the piles of project on your desk and how are you ever going to get it all done by hard close.

2) The looks:
a) those dark bags under your eyes is not ugly...it actually brings out the color in your eyes...kinda like a black background on a picture...really makes that color POP!
b) and that I-haven't-slept-since-October-and-I-dont-give-a-crap-what-I-look-like look is SO in! Your friends will be so jealous that your look is so effortless (because it is!)

3) Looking like an idiot
a) Too tired to spell
b) to tired to have adult conversation that isn't filled with sudden pauses while your brain shuts off...
c) too tired to really make any sense.
-> you may be asking yourself "Kristin, I see no benefit here?" well, you see: you look like an idiot, so no one will ask you to do anything beyond the bare minimum...you don't need a raise, bonus or promotion anyway right?

4) That special time with your little one:
a) You may be nursing all night long, and you may or may not feel like your you-know-what is going to fall off by sunrise...but think about all that special cuddle time! (actually, this really is a benefit)

Thats right people...learn it, live it, love it! The sleepless lifestyle!....I have embraced it, now who is with me????
